Amica Chips did not immediately respond to a request for comment when contacted by the Guardian, although its phone hold music was Ave Maria with the sound of crunching.

I'm pretty sure, there was an American add where they give out Doritos instead of communion to lure more people into church.

Meanwhile, in other christian denominations: cake? Eucharist. Bless it. Pizza? Bless it, this is Jesus’ flesh now.
